Web Page e-mail address goes to Word/Outlook editor??

We use only Windows Mail for our E-mail service BUT for some reason when we
click on a e-mail address on a web page it opens up Word or Outlook and has
the e-mail address already listed for composition.. We want it to
autmatically compose in Windows Mail, can anyone tell me where this setting
is?? Thanks in advance

Re: Web Page e-mail address goes to Word/Outlook editor??

Open the Default Programs applet, which you can access either from
the Start menu or via the Control Panel, then click the first item:
"Set your default programs."
After a few seconds, a list of programs comes up. Click on "Windows
Mail". If it doesn't respond with "This program has all its defaults"
then fix it by clicking on the option indicated by the first green arrow.
